    Hey guys I was getting ready to put the rear longtravel on my 08 4x4 and was wondering what do I need to do to the drive shaft since it won't be long enought anymore.

    the only thing I know of is a slip yolk for the rear but 4x4's already have it so otherwise i dont think there is anything else needed

    I had mine shortened by a good bit. There isnt a simple fix and its not a one size fits all problem. You need to measure everything once you have your pinion angle set.
